Range Rover Blues:
Can you MIG to a casting?

Tyke:
I would have though so, might not be the strongest weld but it should take.


Could always braze it if not  :wink:


Solution really is a new manifold but it's down to how much trouble it takes to get the old one out.

i had this trouble last monday.had to drill the *ucker out. was solid an took time to drill, start with a small drill bit like 1/8th then gradually work up to i think it was a 9mm i ended up using. then tap it out, may be wrong with the 9mm but you will know by the size of the stud you replace it with.

be warned the studs are really hard, like drilling out high tensile, i did try weld a nut and washer to the stud but couldn't move it.

hope this helps  :wink:
